Flower Kiss Stick High Shine Lip Color: LS10 Nude Narcissus

As well as the Flower BB Cream, I also purchased the Flower Kiss Stick High-Shine Lip Color in Nude Narcissus. I saw this brand new lipstick on the Walmart website and immediately fell in love with the name. I imagined a slick, shiny looking full coverage nude that would look high fashion and pretty.... In the tube and swatched on my arm, I had high hopes for this creamy, glossy lip color - it didn't quite translate that way on my lips however!

From Walmart.com:
Flower Kiss Stick High-Shine Lip Color - $6.98:
  • Emollient oil to improve shine for a rich, creamy application
  • Pure, intense color payoff
  • Ultra-smooth finish
  • Volumizing effect on lips
  • Extreme shine

Flower Kiss Stick High Shine Lip Color Nude Narcissus on my lips

Nude Narcissus looks like a beautiful, glossy nude pink swatched on my arm, but somehow it turned into a way too light corpse-like flesh colour on my lips O_O WAY too light for my skintone, settled into my liplines and didn't apply evenly. I think on someone with much fairer skin and less pigmented lips, it might be a nice colour... on me? Not so much.

Let's talk about the formula, though. I am LOVING the formula on the Kiss Stick High Shine Lip Color. It feels very creamy and hydrating and gives a good amount of shine. It lasted a long time and felt hydrating the whole time, no dryness at all. And the packaging, ohhh the packaging. Definitely does NOT look like a Walmart exclusive line. This beautiful tube feels and looks a lot more expensive than it is and I am loving the gold accents. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have the name of the shade on the tube, only a sticker with the shade number LS10.

As disappointing as the shade is on me, I am definitely going to be picking up a few of these in different shades, especially at $6.98 a pop.

    1. It would probably look great with the right skintone! Just not for me :)
